"Truth In Textbooks" - A Hot-Button Topic in American Education Addressed by Dr. Sandra Alfonsi - the latest "Proclaiming Justice" Podcast

On this week's podcast, host Laurie Cardoza-Moore welcomes Dr. Sanda Alfonsi from her home in Jerusalem. Dr. Alfonsi has been academically immersed in textbook reviews for more than 20 years. She is the Founder and Director of Textbook Alert, an independent think tank, whose goal is to ensure that standards of education are historically accurate as well as ethnically and culturally unbiased. With the recent national headlines on the censorship of the Holocaust-centered graphic novel "Maus" from Tennessee classrooms as an example, textbook content has never been under such intense scrutiny in America. Listen as Dr. Alfonsi sheds light on the concerns we should have for our children's educational well-being.
